I appreciate the insightful answer-posts to my question earlier regarding why it would matter who personally recommended Wilson for the Niger assignment.
The point about the subtle insult to his manhood (i.e., that his wife was the one who recommended him) is particularly interesting.

If anyone is interested in reading Wilson's original NYTimes op-ed piece, below is a link.
Would someone please clear up my confusion -- Why would it matter whether or not Plame recommended her husband to the CIA for the Niger assignment? I don't understand why the matter of who personally recommended him for the trip -- Scooter Libby, Cheney himself, his wife Plame, or someone else for that matter -- is an issue. I haven't been following this story for as long as others on this board, so please excuse the nature of my question.
Thanks,Alex
